Bliss: Heavenly JavaScript

blissfuljs.com

Want to use Vanilla JS but find native APIs a bit unwieldy? Bliss is for you.

Install

If using npm:

npm install blissfuljs --save

If not using npm, no worries! Just download your preferred Bliss bundle from http://blissfuljs.com

Build

npm install
gulp

Test

npm test

Contribute to Bliss!

Please follow the existing code style.
Do not add new methods before consulting.
If editing Bliss, do not edit bliss.js! It’s auto-generated by gulp. The source files are bliss.shy.js and bliss._.js.
Remember, code simplicity, readability, and conciseness matter a lot for this project. Often juggling the three can be tricky.
Right now what Bliss badly needs is tests. If you want to contribute, please consider contributing tests! See here for details.
